Nuisance No. 1 || PLATONIC Reader x Saiki Kusuo || i have a levels 🧍‍♀️

Mother

A/N: Oh, yeah, just realised I said that Saiki can't use X-Ray vision on other psychics when he definitely totally can. That's just smth I felt like adding lmao.

====================

Pulling out my phone, I scrolled down my contacts to Saiki's number, tapping "Unblock" with a sigh. Somehow, I feel like I wanted to be mad at him for a bit, but I guess that's not an option. Weird how that works.

Just as I tap the button, a notification pops down from the top of my screen — from him. Why's he texting me already? Did he forget to say something just now? But as I tap the notification and read what he actually sent, I feel my heart drop a bit.

I stare at my phone, heart pounding as I wait for him to read the damn message or answer or something— shit, what if it's because they're coming over now? Like, now-now? Goddammit.

Throwing my phone onto the sofa, I jump up and look around frantically for a second. Okay, my house is clean, right?? Yeah, this is fine. Nothing's out of place. Jesus, what excuse do I use? Should I say I needed help with homework? Fuck no. I'm not about to act like I'm academically challenged to save his skin, damn. My pride is too precious to me for that.

So what? Should I just wait by the door, or something? Maybe if I act like I'm cooking she'll think I'm responsible and she won't kill me as much. Speaking of, Pinky said his mum was mad. Wh— did he tell her I'm his girlfriend or something? Why would she be mad?

The doorbell rings and I freeze, staring at my front door like it just caught me stealing something. Well, damn. This is it. I'm gonna die. If she doesn't kill me the embarrassment will.

OH SHIT WAIT I'M PSYCHIC.

'SAIKI.' I scream into his head, sensing he's nearby.
'I know, I know! What? What do we do?' He replies. 'Open the door! She's impatient!'
'WHY DON'T YOU JUST TELL HER YOU USED YOUR TELEPATHY AND I'M IN THE SHOWER OR SOMETHING?!'
'STOP YELLING. And I can't! She knows when I'm lying, it's a mum thing, I don't know!'
Ohhh, my god, I'm gonna cryyy... 'I'm gonna open the door.'

Aaah, shit. Okay. I grip the door handle and pull it open, trying my best to look pleasantly surprised as I blink at Saiki and his... mum? What the fuck, she looks so young.

The lady beams at me, but I can definitely sense a bit of hostility behind her closed-eye smile, and glancing at Pinky I swear I see sweat droplets on his forehead as he stands pretty helplessly behind her.
"Aw, hi, sweetie! It's so nice to meet you, you're our new neighbour, right? I'm so sorry I didn't come around sooner and say hello!" She speaks so sweetly... but holy hell I feel like I'm in danger.
"Oh! Yeah, no, don't worry about it, it's no big deal. Sorry I didn't introduce myself. I've just been — uh, occupied with the new school and everything."
